The Timbers had plenty of nervous moments, especially as both starting centerbacks went off injured tonight. And a goal of the year candidate from Valeri was called off. But Adi ended his scoring drought in dazzling fashion, putting the Timbers 3 points farther up the board with his usual double dose of goals placed neatly into the back of the net.
It started off well enough with the Timbers seeing most of the ball in the early minutes. In the 5th minute Adi tried to open the scoring with a cracker of a shot from 25 yards out.
